THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA WEDNESDAT, JUNE 15, 1870.
WOJIKEltS ABROAD.
THE lNDtolRlaX CLASSES JN FRANCE AND 8W1T
ZKHLAND. from the Pall HM Qatutt.
In France at any rate, in Faris the work
icgnian makes the Government Tinder which
he lives, and lives in a great degree on the
Government wbioh he has made. His de
pendence Logins in the earliest stages of life,
before he is aware how much he is discount
ing the power which he will hereafter exer
cise, llis infantine days are pnswed in the
creche, where public or private charity affords
him shelter and attendance without
trouble to either of his pareuts. From the
creche he passes to the tulle d' anile, where it
is only a question of pride or meanness on
the part of his parents whether his first edu
cation shall be wholly or partially gratuitous.
I3e it remembered that the salles d'asite are
not confined to Paris; for in 18M not fewer
than 432,000 children were educated in these
institutions altogether. Fratn the salle d'asile
he is transferred to the ecole priiaire,wher6,
for the slightest payment, or for none at all, he
gets more thorough instruction than the sons
of many English brokers and merchants re
ceive in "Establishments for Young Gentle
men." In 1K0G more than 1,732,000 boys
and 1,578,000 girls attended these schools
throughout France. Beyond these, again,
are different superior schools, culminating in
the most ambitious of all, the Conservatoire
des Arts et Metiers. Up to this point little
has been done by the French workman, but
everything for him. Henceforth his attempts
to help himself are aided by the benevolence
of a paternal Government. There are about
f00 savings banks in France, with deposits to
the value of twenty-three millions sterling.
Then there are the Annuity Societies (Caiases
de Itetraite pour la Yioillesse), which enable a
workingman, by the investment of two sous
ft day, to obtain an annuity of 20 on attain
ing his sixtieth year. Lastly, there are the
Societes de Secours Mutuels, or Friendly So
cieties, which perform functions nearly identi
cal with those in England. They furnish
temporary assistance to their sick or infirm
members, and provide the funeral expenses
of those who are dead. All these societies,
we infer from the general tenor of the Report,
are more or less watched by the Govern
ment. They are controlled by official
pressure into a conformity of practice with
principle, and are not allowed to expend
.HO per cent, of their receipts on the
salaries and feasts of their committeemen
From all these circumstances one might
infer that the French workman is a well
trained, disciplined, and contented man,
thrifty in the accumulation of funds which
can be so well economized, and grateful to
the Government which thus stimulates and
rewards his thrift. He who would make
such a supposition would find himself
strangely disabused by facts. The French
artisan in general, and the Parisian artisan
in particular, is neither grateful nor con
tented. The wages which he receives are on
a level with those of his English compeer.
But, in Paris at any rate, he does not save or
invest more largely than the Englishman.
He does not, it is true, guzzle and swill away
his earnings as too many London workmen
do. But he is not a whit less extravagant in
his own way. He expends a large proportion
of his wages on what he calls his plaisirs.
Fetes, cafes, dancing-saloons, music-halls,
singing-rooms, in which the indecency is
more striking than the melody or the wit,
make as great a drain on his resources as the
alehouse and gin-palace do on those of the
London mechanic. And the women are not
behind the men in their love of pleasure.
Many a wife of a Parisian laborer earning
high wages goes into some kind of service,
not to make the pot boil at home,
but to provide for her plaisirg
abroad. A working population which
thus provides for its own pleasures, and
has its education and protection provided for
it, ought to be cheerful, and even jolly. But
the working population of Paris, though often
excited by gayety, knows nothing of perma
nent contentment. As Mr. Malet says, "No
private indulgence, no public legislation, can
eradicate from their mind the idea that the
capitalist is a vampire feeding on their blood.
In the workshop the discipline may be com
plete; beyond it the employer is treated
without respect, and his word is without in
fluence. His efforts to make little arrange
ments which may be useful are treated not as
boons, but as devices to bribe them to addi
tional labor. A large manufacturer, by way
of doing a kindness to the hands in his em
ployment, turned on a tap of hot and cold
water outside the manufactory, at which any
of the families living about could come and
help themselves. A. workman, on being
asked whether the innovation was well re
ceived by his fellows, replied simply, without
the slightest intention of giving offense, that
it appeared to be only a small part of what
was due to them. No indulgence
appears to them in the light of a spontaneous
Act of benevolence. They say again and
again, It is only part of what is due to us."
It is not a pleasant reflection that thousands
of French operatives go through their lives
imbued with these opinions, which they leave
to their children and successors, to be culti
vated and developed by the sermons of Social
ist teachers in every large town. It is a dreary
piece of good fortune which forbids a Parisian
workman to have grandchildren; otherwise
this teaching would fructify more rapidly
than it has done hitherto. To the alternate
excitements of indulgence and insurrection is
due a result which proves the unwholesome
ness of Parisian life, and precludes the here
ditary transmission of an inexorable commu
nism in the same families.
"V turn from France to Switzerland.
Here, at all events, the life of the operative
should be at once happy, contented, and self-
dependent. He is the citizen of a country
which has grand national traditions, and of
which all the inhabitants are equal. Neither
is political equality marred by those inequall
ties of fortune which make American repab
licanism such a ludicrous mockery. The only
plutocrats are the bankers and the hotel
keepers; and even their interests are often
identified with those of their poorer neigh
bors by the prevailing spirit of association.
Where people are politically equal, and where
primogeniture does not exist, one would ex
pect t see all equally dependent on their
own exertions. But this is not the case.
There is unmistakably a poor class in all
parts of Switzerland, and in some parts this
is very poor indeed. For this both the cau
tonal and the communal authorities exert
themselves to provide education, to
and employment, and even furnish cheap
food. In the forest districts the commune
generally distribute wood gratuitously. Mr.
Bonar writes: "There is not a singlo family
throughout the canton of Argovie which does
not receive annually from 120 to 10 cubio
feet of wood." After following the very
minute details of the aid liberally given by
local authorities and rich men in Switzerland
to their poorer fellow-citizens details ou
which Mr. Bonar dwells with nnction it is
iiiiposfcitle to road the foil
Hitiwut a snijle; "N,ot only
axe
tha Lajas-
trious classes specially favorei by accidental
circumstances of climate, etc.', but their
natural self-independence of character en
ables them to form a powerful link by their
numbers in that firm chain of brotherhood
which," etc. Many a true word is spoken in
jeRt.' Probably the substitution of the word
"self -independence" for "self-dependence"
was not wholly unintentional. Certainly Mr.
Bonar 'a whole description is that of ft people
who, though industrious, and in some can
tons very laborious, are altogether mere de
pendent on others than on themselveB. That
men who work so hard as the Swiss laborers,
and who, like them, often have land of their
own, should not be able to subsist exclusively
on their own toil, is strange enough. But it
is yet more strange that they should dip their
fingers into the public purse, or into
the pockets of their richer neighbors, for the
acquirement of education, of fuel, and of
food When we see communism of so ad
vanced a kind practised by two nations like
the Swiss and the French, in each of which
equal division of property is recognized, and
primogeniture repudiated, we may approxi
mately reckon the distance of time at whioh
similar practices will become familiar to our
selves, who have already increased the power
and diminished the taxation of our poor, who
have opened free dormitories to the more ad
venturous of our roving mendicants, and who
still retain a monopoly of land wnicti is espe
cially obnoxious to that numerous class
which thinks that all property is a mistake, if
not a crime, and that the only good of the
rich is to give money to the poor. Only we
may venture to hope that, when that time
comes, we shall have learned to call things by
their right names, and that the sovereign
proletaire, while he maintains himself entirely
on the involuntary contributions of oppressed
opulence, will not insist on being compli
mented in the reports of foreign diploma
tists for his thrift, prudence, and self-de-pendence.
